I’m a Helsinki-born Lead Designer now based in Vienna. With a passion for crafting visually striking designs and animations, I’ve had the pleasure of collaborating with some of the world’s most iconic brands. When I’m not leading design initiatives, you can find me learning game design, enjoying gallery openings, or dog-sitting in my spare time.
I designed this fun little game as my portrait using Rive, inspired by the nostalgia of early 2000s dress-up games. Play around with my hair, makeup, or shirt and create your own look!
Currently, I work as the Lead Designer at WeAreDevelopers, where I spearhead large-scale event design, brand identity, and motion graphics for international events like the WeAreDevelopers World Congress and CODE100.
Prior to WeAreDevelopers, I worked in-house at Meta through Ogilvy, producing marketing content for Facebook Gaming across EMEA, APAC, and North America.
My career began as a freelancer, where I had the pleasure of working with international clients such as Benefit Cosmetics, Apple, Adidas, TED, and BuzzFeed. This phase of my career enhanced my ability to manage time effectively and handle multiple design projects simultaneously.
